Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Cynic,

I stand corrected!

Exec,

UK Economy 6th biggest, descending in ranks.

Population UK (including Scotland) 63.5 million, EU28 states 506 million, increasing in size!

I think I would prefer to be fishing in the nearest pool.

so much for swathes of europe voting for significant overhaul of the eu structure ...... do we give a hoot, say the morbidly obese?

Juncker nominated for Commission president
Jean-Claude Juncker, the former Luxembourg prime minister, has been nominated by the EU’s presidents and prime ministers to become the next head of the European Commission over the strong objection of Britain’s David Cameron.
Mr Juncker, who has served nearly 30 years in Luxembourg and European politics, must now be approved by the European parliament, which is scheduled to vote on his nomination in mid-July. His confirmation is all but assured

And Cameron will claim it is all down to his negotiating skills.

Winning friends and influencing people and make it easier to get the changes he thinks are necessary!

Europe must groan when he appears on the stage.

Although, it is sometimes reasonable to stick out like a sore thumb, making a habit of it would suggest a need for a visit to his therapist for a reality check.

Juncker is reputed to have a serious drink problem. There are accounts of him drinking glass of cognac at breakfast meetings.

and if DC had not stood his ground, you would no doubt have rabbitted on about how weak he was not to stick by his guns

MT, whom you love dearly, would no doubt have approved of DC's stance ..... certainly i think it was pretty courageous, though arguably not handled to best advantage - we only know what we are told or read - and i concur with Exec that it will have done his standing with uk electorate no harm at all

November last year

Jean-Claude Juncker, prime minister of Luxembourg and Europe's longest-serving leader, stepped down on Wednesday over his implication in a spying scandal.

So even if they appoint him, he might well have to step down for being a drunk spy.

Cynic your an idiot to concur with poster Exec L, best to just squelsh the tosser. lets face it hes been kicked off advfn, now tell me how diffficult is that. !!!!!!!

Junker is a lovely man a real lovely man.

You and Chris Carson would make good boozy mates.

Haze,

As you seem to be an insider, what or whom does Cameron surround himself with in No 10?
